<title>perf inject: Adjust output data offset for backward compatibility</title>

<id>urn:sha1:37ed2cddcbf1b52b03b9b2344c752ed867fa3539</id>
<content type='text'>
When 'perf inject' creates a new file, it reuses the data offset from
the input file. If there has been a change on the size of the header, as
happened in v5.12 -&gt; v5.13, the new offsets will be wrong, resulting in
a corrupted output file.

This change adds the function perf_session__data_offset to compute the
data offset based on the current header size, and uses that instead of
the offset from the original input file.

<title>perf header: Record non-CPU PMU capabilities</title>

<content type='text'>
PMUs advertise their capabilities via sysfs attribute files but
the perf tool currently parses only core(CPU) or hybrid core PMU
capabilities. Add support of recording non-core PMU capabilities
int perf.data header.

Note that a newly proposed HEADER_PMU_CAPS is replacing existing
HEADER_HYBRID_CPU_PMU_CAPS. Special care is taken for hybrid core
PMUs by writing their capabilities first in the perf.data header
to make sure new perf.data file being read by old perf tool does
not break.

perf inject overwrites feature sections with information from the current
machine. It makes more sense to keep original information that describes
the machine or software when perf record was run.

Example: perf.data from "Desktop" injected on "nuc11"

 Before:

  $ perf script --header-only -i perf.data-from-desktop | head -15
  # ========

  # feat offset    : 838688

  $ perf inject -i perf.data-from-desktop -o injected-perf.data

  $ perf script --header-only -i injected-perf.data | head -15
  # ========

 After:

  $ perf inject -i perf.data-from-desktop -o injected-perf.data

  $ perf script --header-only -i injected-perf.data | head -15

Many feature sections should not be re-written during perf inject. In
preparation to support that, add callbacks that a tool can use to copy
a feature section from elsewhere. perf inject will use this facility to
copy features sections from the input file.

<title>perf bench: Fix numa testcase to check if CPU used to bind task is online</title>

<id>urn:sha1:8cb7a188ac33b71ec24a9081d1521f46dcab53c4</id>
<content type='text'>
Perf numa bench test fails with error:

Testcase:

  ./perf bench numa mem -p 2 -t 1 -P 1024 -C 0,8 -M 1,0 -s 20 -zZq --thp  1 --no-data_rand_walk

Failure snippet:

&lt;&lt;&gt;&gt;
  Running 'numa/mem' benchmark:

  # Running main, "perf bench numa numa-mem -p 2 -t 1 -P 1024 -C 0,8 -M 1,0 -s 20 -zZq --thp 1 --no-data_rand_walk"

  perf: bench/numa.c:333: bind_to_cpumask: Assertion `!(ret)' failed.
&lt;&lt;&gt;&gt;

The Testcases uses CPU's 0 and 8. In function "parse_setup_cpu_list",
There is check to see if cpu number is greater than max cpu's possible
in the system ie via "if (bind_cpu_0 &gt;= g-&gt;p.nr_cpus || bind_cpu_1 &gt;=
g-&gt;p.nr_cpus) {".

But it could happen that system has say 48 CPU's, but only number of
online CPU's is 0-7. Other CPU's are offlined. Since "g-&gt;p.nr_cpus" is
48, so function will go ahead and set bit for CPU 8 also in cpumask (
td-&gt;bind_cpumask).

bind_to_cpumask function is called to set affinity using
sched_setaffinity and the cpumask. Since the CPU8 is not present, set
affinity will fail here with EINVAL.

Fix this issue by adding a check to make sure that, CPU's provided in
the input argument values are online before proceeding further and skip
the test. For this, include new helper function "is_cpu_online" in
"tools/perf/util/header.c".

Since "BIT(x)" definition will get included from header.h, remove
that from bench/numa.c

Currently it unconditionally writes to stdout for repipe.  But perf
inject can direct its output to a regular file.  Then it needs to
write the header to the file as well.

<id>urn:sha1:e119083bab80c2550065f6c0f10ba225a894595e</id>
<content type='text'>
Perf has supported the CPU_PMU_CAPS feature to display a list of CPU PMU
capabilities. But on a hybrid platform, it may have several CPU PMUs (such
as "cpu_core" and "cpu_atom"). The CPU_PMU_CAPS feature is hard to extend
to support multiple CPU PMUs well if it needs to be compatible for the case
of old perf data file + new perf tool.

So for better compatibility we now create a new feature HYBRID_CPU_PMU_CAPS
in the header.

For the perf.data generated on hybrid platform,

  root@otcpl-adl-s-2:~# perf report --header-only -I

  # cpu_core pmu capabilities: branches=32, max_precise=3, pmu_name=alderlake_hybrid
  # cpu_atom pmu capabilities: branches=32, max_precise=3, pmu_name=alderlake_hybrid
  # missing features: TRACING_DATA BRANCH_STACK GROUP_DESC AUXTRACE STAT CLOCKID DIR_FORMAT COMPRESSED CPU_PMU_CAPS CLOCK_DATA

For the perf.data generated on non-hybrid platform

  root@kbl-ppc:~# perf report --header-only -I

  # cpu pmu capabilities: branches=32, max_precise=3, pmu_name=skylake
  # missing features: TRACING_DATA BRANCH_STACK GROUP_DESC AUXTRACE STAT CLOCKID DIR_FORMAT COMPRESSED CLOCK_DATA HYBRID_TOPOLOGY HYBRID_CPU_PMU_CAPS

It is useful to let the user know about the hybrid topology.

Add the HYBRID_TOPOLOGY feature in header to indicate the core CPUs
and the atom CPUs.

With this patch a perf.data generated on a hybrid platform reports
the hybrid CPU list:

  root@otcpl-adl-s-2:~# perf report --header-only -I
  ...
  # hybrid cpu system:
  # cpu_core cpu list : 0-15
  # cpu_atom cpu list : 16-23

For a perf.data generated on a non-hybrid platform, reports a message
that HYBRID_TOPOLOGY is missing:

  root@kbl-ppc:~# perf report --header-only -I
  ...
  # missing features: TRACING_DATA BRANCH_STACK GROUP_DESC AUXTRACE STAT CLOCKID DIR_FORMAT COMPRESSED CLOCK_DATA HYBRID_TOPOLOGY

<title>perf header: Store clock references for -k/--clockid option</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d1e325cf40fec5fec9b18aa2b537de7e3680ef6c</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a new CLOCK_DATA feature that stores reference times when
-k/--clockid option is specified.

It contains the clock id and its reference time together with wall clock
time taken at the 'same time', both values are in nanoseconds.

The format of data is as below:

  struct {
       u32 version;  /* version = 1 */
       u32 clockid;
       u64 wall_clock_ns;
       u64 clockid_time_ns;
  };

This clock reference times will be used in following changes to display
wall clock for perf events.

It's available only for recording with clockid specified, because it's
the only case where we can get reference time to wallclock time. It's
can't do that with perf clock yet.

Committer testing:

  $ perf record -h -k

   Usage: perf record [&lt;options&gt;] [&lt;command&gt;]
      or: perf record [&lt;options&gt;] -- &lt;command&gt; [&lt;options&gt;]

      -k, --clockid &lt;clockid&gt;
                            clockid to use for events, see clock_gettime()

  $ perf record -k monotonic sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.017 MB perf.data (8 samples) ]
  $ perf report --header-only | grep clockid -A1
